Not bad ;-)
My only improvement would be that you add $output = false at the start, then at the
end just before the return add if ($output === false) { trigger_error('Something
went wrong since a password could not be generated.', E_USER_WARNING); }
Then you can easily test to make sure a password was generated by doing using ===
false ;-)
The next level up would be to use OOP... then you could use constants to set
letters, and add your own character set:
$password = new password();
$password->set_charset('0123456789abcdef'); //hex ;-)
or
$password->set_charset(password::CHARSET_HEX); //hex again, but this time using
a constant so you cant accidentally miss a character ;-)
also, if you use the STD library you can implement the array interface allowing you
to manipulate the generated password like an array:
count($password);
//get the first character
print $password[0];
Have fun.
Kind regards,
Scott
